The existence of an immortal, omnipotent God would violate conservation of energy. Basic thermodynamics.

Well, that was easy.

Hey /sci/ what can I wrap around money that can make it undetectable to those x-rays machines at the airport?

You remind me of a friend. After hearing Adam Smith's story of the pin factory, her response was, "Who needs that many pins?"

Mathematics is science, then mathematicians are scientists.

But that's fucking wrong.

If we're talking about raping kids consent is irrelevant because 'hurr durr kids'.

Meanwhile kids are only adults after 18 in the past few hundreds years and only in places influenced by Europe. That's not even mentioning that 18 is an arbitrary age to begin with.

It's one page, you lazy fuck.

Some guy from the USA told me this

>There is low calculus in engineering physics at most colleges. Physics at the lowest level, which engineering physics is, is very simple. If you are good at memorizing equations, engineering physics is incredibly easy because it's very straightforward. You have this, that, those things; need this; remember equation with those variables; get an A on the midterms. It's not until mid-level physics where you actually have to think about what you're doing and where higher level calculus plays a huge role. But most engineers don't have to take mid-level physics.

Is that true? If so, the usa is even more backwards than I thought.

(x-3)(x-2)=4(x+1)-8
x^2 - 3x-2x + 6 = 4x + 4 - 8
x^2 - 5x + 6 = 4x - 4
x^2-9x + 10 = 0
...i cant factorise it. fuck it. i can haz cheatzz:

You have confused "dumbfuck paintsniffers, jocks, and other assholes in high-school" with "normal people".
I can assure you, most of us are as smart as you, could figure out why the people around you behave the way they do, and articulate it in words.


You are not MOAR SPESHUL. You are just being an asshole.

first of all, retardation isnt caused by a 'damaged egg'
a damaged egg just wont be able to be fertilised. and if it can be fertilised, then the fetus will grow as normal.

secondly, you cant take the joined DNA (containing fathers sperm and mothers damaged egg) and put it in another egg, thats 3 sets of genes, faher-mother-mother.

and there would be no point anyway, it is easy enough just to start again.

>implying I care
Clearly you're not following my posts

>What exactly are you basing this on? Spearing or stoning a single herd animal provides more food faster than raiding termite hills.

Let me guess this straight...
It's faster and more energy efficient to forge a weapon.
Wander out to the hunting grounds with the rest of your tribe/family/whatever.
FIND an animal to kill.
Run it down until it's exhausted.
So that you can finally kill it and drag it all the way back to your starting point.
To finally butcher it and prepare it for consumption.

Than it is to, find a termite mound and pick the suckers out and eat them?

A conversation with my parents over Skype:

Dad: So son, they prove that-uh, string theory yet?
Me: String theory? Naw, that shit is about as scientific as Aristotle's concept of "impetus".
Dad: But they proved him right, right?
Me: No its--
Mom: Oh yeah! With the conservation of energy and all!
Me: What? Mom I--
Mom: You see it's like water. When you turn water into steam, it starts radiating energy, and we can use that energy to power steam engines.
Me: No you're completely missing the--
Mom: But what if we added something to that water? See, if you had two completely different elements just separated, they wouldn't do anything. But what if you had two atoms made up of different elements collide? It may react or be benign or even create energy!
Me: Mom I have no idea what the fuck you're--
Dad: See son? I like your mother's way of thinking. I mean, I don't buy into this bullshit about "God" but if there's any true answer to the universe, it's String Theory. It really comforts me.

Oh my god I have the biggest fucking trollparents.

I disagree, publication is for fags. Cavendish was a genius scientist, he just never published. Scientist do science, they don't even need to get paid, published or have lab coats.

Why do you faggots have these wars simular to /v/'s console wars?

It's pathetic. I can replace a couple words and BAM, you couldn't tell /v/ from /sci/.

Holy shit you're stupid. The environment has changed. Paraplegics aren't weakening the species. They're not running down gazelle. They can thrive in modern conditions. There is no ideal human. Only an individual that does well in a given environment. Lrn2Darwinism.

There's the flaw with your argument.
